• San Antonio
  

  

  San Antonio Abad is the old name of Sant Antoni de Portmany (the official name in Catalan) which is a Spanish municipality on the island of Ibiza (Eivissa in Catalan) and located in the province of the Baleares.
  One of the most emblematic monuments of San Antonio is the egg with the ship Santa Maria in the middle.  Dedicated to Christopher Columbus, the monument refers to the famous story detailed for the first time in “Voyages of De Bry” – Frankfurt – 1594, when Columbus was looking to finance one of his expeditions.  During his attempt to find a financier, Christopher Columbus asked his audience if they could make an egg stand upright.  Several tried and failed before Columbus finally took the egg, cracked the bottom a bit and placed it back down, allowing it to stand fully upright.  After his successful attempt, Columbus remarked, “NEW ways have been found to reach our objectives.”

• Ibiza

  Ibiza and Formentera, also known as the “Islas Pitiusas” because of the abundance of pine trees that cover their landscapes, are home to about 111.200 inhabitants and a surface area of 575km². The maximum length of the island by highway is 42 km.
  Its capital is Ibiza and the two most important towns apart from the capital are San Antoni de Portmany and Santa Eulalia del Río. The island is home to only one river, the river of Santa Eulalia del Río, which has been dry for many years. 
  Endowed with a striking mix of culture, crystal blue waters, vegetation, warm weather, caves, markets, sports, and a unique and famed nightlife, the island of Ibiza offers easy access by air and sea to Spain and the rest of Europe.
  Ibiza city is one of the most fascinating parts of the island.  From day to night the streets offer constant activity, a complete mix of styles and a remarkable sense of openness and freedom. Important highlights are the Cathedral (14th century) and walls from the Renaissance era, both included as part of the historic art of Dalt Vila and declared a World Heritage Site in 1999.  From here one may enjoy an exceptional view of the bay.
